Abstract
732,571. Fluid-pressure servomotor-control systems. NORTHROP AIRCRAFT, Inc. Nov. 18, 1952 [Nov. 19, 1951], No. 29095/52. Class 135. [Also in Group XXXIII] A hydraulic aircraft control system for preventing control surface flutter due to airframe flexure comprises a control surface 21 pivoted on the airframe, a hydraulic cylinder 25 connected at one end to move with the surface and having its piston-rod 27 connected, e.g. directly or through a lever system, with a shaft 17 mounted, e.g. directly or by a lever, on the airframe, a control quadrant 19 rotatable coaxially about the shaft, and a valve housing 30, mounted on and moving with the cylinder, having a valve 31 controlling fluid supply to the cylinder and connected by a rod 32 to the quadrant. When shaft 17 is moved due to reaction between cylinder and piston producing airframe flexure, the valve is correspondingly moved to reduce oscillation. In another embodiment where it is not practical to use one shaft 17, the piston-rod is pivotally connected to a lever pivotally mounted at one end on the airframe and having its other end positioned between two opposed pre-loaded springs, the valve-operating quadrant is mounted on another lever also pivoted on the airframe and an adjustable link interconnects the levers so that movement of piston and first lever also moves the quadrant lever and valve.
